How much do you know about the traditional cultural stories behind the Mid-Autumn Festival party?

Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China, which symbolizes reunion. Speaking of the origin of this festival, it can be traced back to ancient times, and there are many legends about the Mid-Autumn Festival. I don't know how much you know about the traditional cultural stories behind it. Let's take a look!

I. the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon

Legend has it that the beautiful Chang 'e is Hou Yi's wife. There is a disciple named Pang Meng under Houyi's door. He has a bad heart and is bent on stealing Houyi's elixir of life. He took advantage of Houyi to go out to get the medicine. Chang 'e didn't want it to fall into the hands of such people, so she took the medicine herself. After eating it, Chang 'e's body became lighter and lighter. Second, WU GANG cut Guangxi.

WU GANG was angry that his wife betrayed his marriage, so he killed the man who was having an affair with his wife. However, this move angered the gods in heaven. God wants to punish WU GANG and let him cut down the osmanthus tree in Guanghan Palace. But it was an unusual osmanthus tree, and the wound healed immediately after it was cut down. No matter how WU GANG cut it down, the tree still stood and didn't hurt anything. WU GANG's wife loves him dearly and turns her three children into jade rabbits. With a toad and a snake accompanying him, there is a story about the jade rabbit smashing medicine. Because the tree can't be cut down, WU GANG also misses his underground mother. He breaks a branch every year to express his love for acacia, so he has osmanthus wine on earth. Three, thousands of miles * * * Chen Juan

I wish people a long time, thousands of miles away. Poems by poet Su Shi, here? Juan Juan? It means the moon. The moon sends homesickness. The moon bears the homesickness of many people. The moon is sunny and round, but the moon in Mid-Autumn Festival is round, which means reunion and symbolizes the happiness of the whole family. Although we can't get together, we can look up and see the same bright moon, which is another kind of romance in time and space. I think a lot of imagination about the moon is also one of the beautiful traditional cultural stories.
